This can't be pushed to a stable release as-is because it doesn't contain the
geoipupdate stuff and would break things for anyone that uses it. Needs to wait
until the new geoipupdate package is ready, and have a dependency on it.
This update is currently being pushed to the Fedora 21 testing updates repository.
Okay, we can hold off on pushing it, but I think that geoipupdate is going to be
approved soon. Not clear that GeoIP needs to have a dependency on geoipupdate,
though. One could be receiving updates another way, or skip updates altogether.
GeoIP in Fedora 22 onwards doesn't need to depend of geoipupdate, for the
reasons you specified. However, everywhere else has already shipped a GeoIP that
includes geoipupdate (and the libGeoIPUpdate library) so as per the stable
release updates policy, any GeoIP update there needs to include the geoipupdate
stuff, either included or as a dependency, so as not to break anything on end
user systems.
And the cleanest way of doing the update on F21, F-20 etc. would be to add the
GeoIP build onto the update for the geoipupdate package release, so as to be
sure they both got released at the same time.
